5 Days Post-Surg.....where's the Nausea?



Recommended Posts

Am I alone in this? I have not experienced ANY nausea. Not since waking up in the recovery room on Tuesday...nada..not one bit. No urge to puke, no swimmy barfy feeling. Just a little localized pain (not bad) and hunger. Not like over the top tummy growling hunger....but a sluggish kind of punky, head achey.....damn I am hungry sense of not having enough gas in the tank.

A little nausea might take the edge off my overwhelming desire to eat an egg mcmuffin.

But nope. Now it's just a waiting game until it's legal to eat something and I feel oddly....annoyed....by my good luck.

Anyone else completely lack nausea?

Haha totally opposite!! From the moment I woke up in recovery and for 48 solid hours all I did was dry heave/vomit from the overwhelming nausea. They gave me every antiemetic possible and nothing took the edge off.

Thankfully, I haven't had any nausea or issues since then, but consider yourself lucky! I was positive that my new little pouch was going to burst open from the force of throwing up.

Oh my gosh, you're so fortunate, I'm really glad for you! I've had nausea from the moment I woke up after surgery. They threw every anti-nausea med (including an anti-anxiety med that I had no idea worked for nausea) they had at me in the hospital. I also used ginger aromatherapy (provided by the hospital). The only thing that helped was the ginger briefly, and the compazine and that completely knocked me on my butt, all I could do was sleep. Now that I'm home I'm taking zofrsn around the clock, as well as a med for stomach cramps called Levsin. Luckily I've avoided vomiting except for twice.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
